Gangster Hats
by Staff Writer
All gangster hats, whether worn by movie gangsters of the 1940s or rap “gangstas” today, have one thing in common: serious style. When looked at as a broad category, gangster hats cover a range of designs, materials, and patterns. What unites them is the attitude of the wearer, which exudes confidence and a streak of bold individualism.
Gangster hats of the 1930s and 1940s nearly always took the form of fedoras. From James Cagney to Edward G. Robinson and Humphrey Bogart, these men–and their characters–used their fedoras as a mark of distinction. Hiding under the brim, they could project a menacing presence and instill fear in those who crossed them.
A Wide Range of Gangster Hats
Today’s version of gangster hats encompasses a broader category that includes not only fedoras, but also certain Godfather hats, Homburgs, and Derby Bowlers from the likes of Beaver Brand. Even more contemporary looks from brands such as Kangol include the skullcap, the lahinch, the brim, the stingy brim hat, and a hot collection of caps.
